Chapter 212 Going to the Civil Affairs Bureau
"That's right, and the back of the door is covered with talismans, and there is a peach wood sword and a Bagua mirror hanging on it. It should be used to prevent the female ghost from coming in." Li Zhi said.
Xie Tingzhou's eyelashes twitched. After thinking for two seconds, he analyzed slowly, "Since this isn't where the female ghost died, and there are things posted inside 401 to prevent her, then this means that the female ghost is chasing the person who hurt her?"
Li Zhi nodded, "Yes, that should be the case."
"According to Aunt Mei and the others, this female ghost appeared here a few days ago. The people in 401 must have guessed or were afraid that the female ghost would seek revenge on him, so they took these life-saving measures in advance. But I guess she has most likely moved to a new place now."
Li Zhi folded his arms, looked at Room 401, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said slowly: "But there is another possibility..."
Xie Tingzhou raised an eyebrow, "What?"
Li Zhi touched her chin with her slender hand. "That means they can't deal with this female ghost. They can only use other methods to deliberately lure her here to get rid of her pursuit."
"Anyway, no matter what, when I see this female ghost at night, I'll know exactly what's going on."
Xie Tingzhou understood, "Then it seems we will stay here tonight."
"Yeah." Li Zhi responded, "Otherwise it would be too troublesome to run back and forth. We just packed up the house I rented, so let's stay there for the night."
Xie Tingzhou naturally had no objection, "Okay."
He turned and looked at the door behind him, then said, "Do you want to go in and take a look at 402?"
Li Zhi followed his gaze and said, "Let's take a look. Maybe we'll find something else."
"Okay, go ahead." Xie Tingzhou said.
Li Zhi nodded, walked to the other side, and walked through the wall into Room 402.
She took a quick turn inside and came out directly.
Li Yanjing looked at Li Zhi, who came out just two minutes later, and asked, "Mom, how is it?"
Li Zhi looked up at the father and son waiting outside, then her gaze fell on Li Yanjing and she replied, "No one lives in 402, it's an empty house. Let's go. Or we can come back here in the evening."
Xie Tingzhou looked at her and asked, "Shall we go get the marriage certificate now?"
Li Zhi nodded, her deep eyes dark and clear, "I was just about to tell you, there's still time to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau now."
"Okay." Xie Tingzhou responded, holding Li Yanjing's hand, and followed her downstairs.
......
Back in the car, Li Zhi had just fastened his seat belt when the phone in his pocket suddenly rang.
Her fingertips paused slightly, guessing that Aunt Mei must have found out something and sent her a message.
Li Zhi slowly took out his cell phone from his pocket, unlocked the screen, and opened WeChat.
Sure enough, it was a voice message from Aunt Mei.
Li Zhi raised her hand and clicked play, and Aunt Mei's voice came from the phone.
"Lizhi, I found out that someone lives in room 401. They say it's a man in his thirties."
"He rented 401 about half a month ago, but he doesn't seem to be here most of the time. I think I only saw him on the first day he rented it."
"I heard he's quite wealthy and drives a luxury car. I don't know why he wants to rent a house here. It's really strange."
Li Zhi's eyes flickered slightly, and her fair fingers quickly tapped the phone screen, and she sent her a message back, "Okay, Aunt Mei, I got it."
Aunt Mei replied immediately: "Lizhi, are you still there?"
Li Zhi: [Gone, just left.]
Aunt Mei: "Then will you come back?"
Li Zhi: [Don't worry, Aunt Mei, she's back. We haven't dealt with that female ghost yet.]
Aunt Mei: "Oh, okay."
Li Zhi didn't reply to her. He turned off the screen of his phone and put it back in his pocket.
Xie Tingzhou naturally heard what Aunt Mei said. He glanced at her from the corner of his eye and said, "If you are really rich, it is indeed strange for you to come here to rent a house."
He paused and continued, "Looking at it this way, your guess is very likely. The other party deliberately lured the female ghost here in order to get rid of her by some means. Are they planning to trap her here?"
"Yes, that's very likely the case." Li Zhi nodded. "Anyway, once we see her tonight, everything will become clear."
Xie Tingzhou nodded and said nothing more.
......
Not long after, the car slowly stopped in front of the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Xie Tingzhou unbuckled his seatbelt, turned to look at the girl next to him, then glanced at the Civil Affairs Bureau outside, "Have you really thought it through?"
Li Zhi picked up the household registration booklet placed on the center console, shook it in her hand, raised her beautiful eyebrows slightly, and said leisurely, "Is there any need to ask this when you're already at the Civil Affairs Bureau?"
Xie Tingzhou curled the corners of his lips and said with a smile, "Get out of the car."
Li Zhi responded, turned around and called Li Yanjing in the back seat, then opened the car door and got out swiftly.
The family of three walked up the steps in front of the door and entered the Civil Affairs Bureau.
It was already three o'clock in the afternoon and there were not many people inside, so it was quite quiet.
At this time, the only couple who came to register were Li Zhi and Xie Tingzhou, so they didn't need to queue.
Li Zhi walked to the marriage registration office, stopped, placed the household registration booklet on the table, and politely said to the registrar, "Hello, we are getting married. Could you please stamp it and register it?"
The registrar was so bored that he almost fell asleep with his chin propped up. Upon hearing this, he raised his eyelids and looked at the man and woman standing in front of the table. He was stunned at first, then reacted, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he woke up instantly.
She had been working as a marriage registrar for a long time and had seen many handsome men and beautiful women, but this was the first time she had seen someone who looked so authoritative and equally good.
The registrar's eyes slid from the two of them again and fell on the little boy standing next to them. He found that he looked very similar to the handsome boy and they were obviously father and son.
I didn’t expect that these two people are only getting their marriage certificate now that their children are so grown up.
Or is it that this handsome guy is actually married for the second time, and the child is not born by this beautiful girl?
The registrar collected his thoughts, smiled slightly, and pulled out two marriage registration application forms. "Fill this out."
She paused and then asked, "Do you have your own marriage registration photos?"
Li Zhi shook her head and said, "No."
The registrar raised his hand and pointed behind him. "Okay, fill out this registration declaration first, and then go over there to take pictures."
"Okay, thank you." Li Zhi responded.
Since they were the only couple there, they completed the whole process very quickly.
Coming out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, Li Zhi looked at the freshly issued marriage certificate in her hand and suddenly felt a sense of unreality. Was she getting married just like that?
